This collection of Chicago’s best restaurants provides answers to the classic question. Luella’s Southern Kitchen TEL (773) 961-8196 This restaurant serves some of the city’s best Southern food, including shrimp, fried chicken and waffles. This restaurant on the North Side is also a popular brunch destination. It’s a casual spot with counter ordering, but it brings a serious menu where everyone can find something hearty. Community Tavern TEL (773) 283-6080 Nowadays, the restaurant has expanded its menu away from its origins as a neighborhood steakhouse. But fortunately, the neighborhood aspect remains.

Pat’s uses its own sausage, which also helps set its flavor apart. Pizzas are available for takeout, delivery, patio, and indoor dining. 1. What number should you call if you want to eat brunch? A.

The Mississippi teacher said she’s lost about 150 pounds since 2008, and has fulfilled a longtime dream — to run and finish the New York City(NYC) Marathon. “It was a dream that came true. I’ve been wanting to do it for 12 years,” Barnes said. Barnes has come a long way over the past decade. At one point, she weighed nearly 300 pounds. “I did have a big setback around 2018, but I got myself together and persevered (坚持不懈) and got with it again,” she said. Running has been an essential part for Barnes. She has so far run many half marathons and four full marathons. “I can say my life is definitely better, not only for getting mentally and physically healthy but for meeting incredible people along,” Barnes said of her experience with running. Although it wasn’t her first marathon, Barnes said the NYC Marathon was still a challenging run. At mile 18, she said she started having “sharp back spasms (痉挛)”, but despite it all, she would not exchange the experience for anything. “The goal might not be exactly what you want, but you will persevere through it and try your best to reach the end goal.” In the end, Barnes completed the NYC Marathon with a final time of 6 hours, 58 minutes and 53 seconds. “I credit everyone for my achievements. The crowds are simply amazing. And I’m also inspired by the people I’ve encountered. Believe in yourself that you can do it, and start with small achievable and measurable goals. Find something you like to do and something that inspires and motivates you,” she said. Today, Barnes runs about five days a week and does both strength and cross training. She plans on running again soon, setting her sights on a half marathon in Arizona next February and running in all 50 states with her husband. She and her husband also hope to run the NYC Marathon together next year. 4. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about? A. Barnes managed to lose weight via surgery. B. Barnes has overcome setbacks in her life. C. Barnes has fulfilled her long-standing wish. D. Barnes has suffered a lot over the last 15 years. 5. What does Barnes try to convey in the second paragraph? A. She benefits a lot from running. B. She has been mentally cured. C. She has run a lot of marathons in her life. D. She wants to make friends through running. 6. What do we know about Barnes’ participation in the NYC Marathon? A. She highly treasured the experience. B. She finished it with the best record. C. She completed it without difficulty. D. She considered it the most challenging. 7. Which of the following can best describe Barnes? A. Demanding but patient. B. Stubborn but friendly. C. Warm-hearted and optimistic. D. Strong-willed and ambitious. C With an increasing demand and numerous challenges concerning traditional coffee agriculture, there is a pressing need for alternative ways of producing coffee. Due to the high demand for coffee, more land is required, leading to deforestation (滥伐森林) — particularly in sensitive areas of rainforest. VTT is developing coffee production through plant cells in its laboratory in Finland. “This project has been part of our overall job to look for the environmentally friendly biotechnological solutions to daily foods that are conventionally produced by agriculture. For this, we use many different hosts, such as microbes (微生物) and plant cells,” says research team leader, Dr Heiko Rischer from VTT. The work started by initiating (创立) coffee cell cultures and establishing respective cell lines. In terms of smell and taste, the trained sensory panel and analytical examination found nothing divergent when comparing the lab’s coffee to ordinary coffee. “Our coffee is so real that it is hard to tell it from the conventional one. Coffee making is an art and involves many processes. Our work provides the basis for such work,” says Rischer. The experience of drinking the very first cup was exciting. Rischer estimates expanding their production is still years away. Growing plant cells requires specific expertise when it is time to improve the process. And the coffee produced in lab conditions should first be approved as Novel Food by the European Commission before being marketed. “Therefore, that’s what we need to devote ourselves to next in the project,” says Rischer. “That said, we have proved that coffee produced in our lab can be real.” The true impact of the project will happen through companies that are willing to rethink food material production and start driving commercial applications. VTT supports large enterprises and small companies in adopting opportunities in their product development. 8. What is the mission of VTT? A. Finding alternatives to coffee. B. Achieving sustainable food production. C. Protecting the areas of rainforest. D. Developing biotechnology in agriculture. 9. What does the underlined word “divergent” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Rernarkable. B. Original. C. Unpleasant. D. Different. 10. What may the project focus on in the following stage? A. Improving the flavour. B. Increasing the production. C. Gaining official approval. D. Cooperating with companies. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Lab- grown Coffee Became a Reality B. Coffee Production Is Facing Challenges C. VVT Met with Success in Novel Food D. Agriculture Is Undergoing a Transformation D It is not just the environment and the economy that are threatened by a warmer climate, but also culture and traditions around the world. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have mapped what little is known about how climate change is gradually destroying local knowledge and cultural heritage. “We risk losing the memory of native people’s ways of life without this type of documentation,” says Guy Jackson at Lund University, one of the authors of a literature study. One conclusion of the study is that cultural heritage is primarily seen as something of material value, such as a historic building, and the loss is seen as a potential future problem, even though there is evidence that it is already happening. Focusing on material losses means that important traditions and knowledge systems are overlooked. “There are also many non-material losses that are valuable for both individual identity and group identity,” says Guy Jackson. The study shows a clear connection between loss of native cultural heritage and changes in the natural environment. For example, songs and working methods change when groups lose traditions linked to a physical location. One scientific article points out that identity is closely linked to the environment, “ Inuit people (因纽特人) in Canada are people of sea ice. If there is no. more sea ice, how can they be people of sea ice?” Loss of traditions and cultural heritage can make it more difficult to deal with climate change and weaken social togetherness, as people lose touch with traditional ways of life. It also raises the question whether we can expect native people to protect and preserve rainforests and other ecosystems. The researchers hope that the literature study can read to more targeted research. They want to see a larger focus on how to handle, minimize and tackle future losses. “Science should contribute by developing practical solutions and strategies that help with adaptation to the losses that have already happened,” Guy Jackson concludes. 12. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A. Climate change causes cultural loss. B. The economy affects the environment. C. Cultural loss is a current problem. D. The native people are being forgotten. 13. What does the study show about the loss of native cultural heritage? A. It is seriously overestimated by scientists. B. It has brought great damage to Canadians. C. It has transformed global working methods. D. It is closely related to environmental changes. 14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about concerning the loss of traditions and cultural heritage? A. Its natural origins. B. Its negative results. C. Its potential reasons. D. Its effective solutions. 15. What is the main idea of the text? A. The unknown threats to the local knowledge. B. The practical solutions to some cultural issues. C. The climate change’s effect on culture and traditions. D. The various losses of important culture and traditions. 第二节（共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether you’re heading out for a day trip or a quick weekend getaway (短期休假), we will share some travel tips in this guide to help you make your experience more enjoyable. ·Think about how you want to travel. ___16___ Sometimes it means the most enjoyable. Too much consideration on short journeys is not worth it. If you’ve got a preference for a certain means of transport, it’s often worth traveling that way for short distances, even if it ends up taking you a little longer. ·___17___ Some cities, like NYC, are quite walkable. Others simply aren’t. In Amsterdam, the best way to get about is by bike — whether you use the city’s shared bikes or rent one from your hotel. In Southeast Asia, you’d better rent a scooter (小型摩托车). ___18___ So don’t bother to find the so-called one-size-fits-all answer. ·Try all the available options. If you’ re not sure about the best means of transport for you, experience them all. See what catching the subway is like, try cycling or riding the bus. It’s hard to predict what will be the most convenient. LA has a low- cost public transport network but car-pooling is cheaper, and scooters are the best for getting around West Hollywood. ___19___ ·Don’t rely on map apps. Map apps are useful, but they don’t take into account the possibility of packed subways, queues for taxis and the heat of a train in summer. ___20___ So don’t assume something is a 30-minute drive just because a map app says so — by the time you’ve driven halfway, you might still have another 30 minutes to go. A. Don’t limit your choices. B. It takes time to find the best. C. Study the city you will travel to. D. You won’t know until you try them all. E. What works here might not work there. F. The best doesn’t necessarily mean the fastest. G. Besides, they are a bit behind the real traffic time. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节, 满分30分） 第一节（共15小题: 每小题1分, 满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 After plates were filled, I announced a new dinnertime practice.

Together with four of his friends, Jack, Dan, Carson and Mali, we were excited to check out the challenging track. We’d see three waterfalls, and a volcanic crater. Stretching over eight kilometers, there were no steps on the track—just muddy paths formed on the rock face by other hikers. Climbing upstream, the journey was not for the faint-hearted (胆小的). We had to climb through thick roots and overgrown vegetation. But I knew the view from the top would be incredible. Finally, after an hour and a half, we stopped for our final rest before the peak. “I’m going to check it out!” Austin said. “I’ll join you” I replied, eager to see the top. Racing up the last stretch, I felt excited as I walked over to the edge of the final waterfall where I turned my camera on. When I moved closer to the edge to get a better look, my foot suddenly gave way on a wet rock, sending me falling feet-first over the edge. I desperately reached out to hang on to any rocks but I couldn’t get one as I fell to the bottom 15 meters below, scraping (刮) against rocks as I went. As I fell, it felt like time stood still. “Was I going to be badly hurt?” I thought. In a moment of clarity (清醒) before I reached the bottom, I twisted my body to the side and tucked (蜷缩) myself in a ball. It was a position I’d learned in volleyball training, aimed at reducing the impact of a fall. Landing in the water with a huge splash, after around 20 seconds I managed to lift my head out, but struggled to breath and I could taste blood. “I’ve got to get myself out,” I realized, walking out to reach the edge of the pool as my visions became unclear. Holding the rocks tightly, I felt pain tore through my body and blood flowed from deep wounds on my left arm and left bottom. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Moments later, Austin arrived and raced down the track. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was airlifted to a waiting ambulance, then rushed to the hospital. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 邓州一高2024年秋期高一年级第二次月考 英语试题 （试卷满分150分, 考试时间120分钟） 注意事项: 1. 答卷前, 考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时, 选出每小题答案后, 用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动, 用橡皮擦干净后, 再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时, 将答案写在答题卡上, 写在本试卷上无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节, 满分30分） 做题时, 先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后, 你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题: 每小题1.5, 分, 满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题, 从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项, 并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后, 你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

The Mississippi teacher said she’s lost about 150 pounds since 2008, and has fulfilled a longtime dream — to run and finish the New York City(NYC) Marathon. “It was a dream that came true. I’ve been wanting to do it for 12 years,” Barnes said. Barnes has come a long way over the past decade. At one point, she weighed nearly 300 pounds. “I did have a big setback around 2018, but I got myself together and persevered (坚持不懈) and got with it again,” she said. Running has been an essential part for Barnes. She has so far run many half marathons and four full marathons. “I can say my life is definitely better, not only for getting mentally and physically healthy but for meeting incredible people along,” Barnes said of her experience with running. Although it wasn’t her first marathon, Barnes said the NYC Marathon was still a challenging run. At mile 18, she said she started having “sharp back spasms (痉挛)”, but despite it all, she would not exchange the experience for anything. “The goal might not be exactly what you want, but you will persevere through it and try your best to reach the end goal.” In the end, Barnes completed the NYC Marathon with a final time of 6 hours, 58 minutes and 53 seconds. “I credit everyone for my achievements. The crowds are simply amazing. And I’m also inspired by the people I’ve encountered. Believe in yourself that you can do it, and start with small achievable and measurable goals. Find something you like to do and something that inspires and motivates you,” she said. Today, Barnes runs about five days a week and does both strength and cross training. She plans on running again soon, setting her sights on a half marathon in Arizona next February and running in all 50 states with her husband. She and her husband also hope to run the NYC Marathon together next year. 4. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about? A. Barnes managed to lose weight via surgery. B.

The Mississippi teacher said she’s lost about 150 pounds since 2008, and has fulfilled a longtime dream — to run and finish the New York City(NYC) Marathon. “It was a dream that came true. I’ve been wanting to do it for 12 years,” Barnes said. Barnes has come a long way over the past decade. At one point, she weighed nearly 300 pounds. “I did have a big setback around 2018, but I got myself together and persevered (坚持不懈) and got with it again,” she said.(在过去的15年里，李·安妮·巴恩斯从一个电视迷变成了一个马拉松运动员。这位密西西比州的教师说，自2008年以来，她已经减掉了大约150磅，并实现了长期以来的梦想——跑完纽约市马拉松赛。“我的梦想成真了。我想做这件事已经有12年了，”巴恩斯说。巴恩斯在过去十年里取得了长足的进步。她的体重一度接近300磅。她说:“在2018年左右，我确实遇到了很大的挫折，但我振作起来，坚持不懈，重新开始了。”)”可知，第一段主要介绍的是Barnes实现了自己长期以来的一个梦想，即跑完纽约市马拉松赛。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“I can say my life is definitely better, not only for getting mentally and physically healthy but for meeting incredible people along(我可以说我的生活确实变得更好了，不仅因为身心健康，而且因为遇到了很棒的人)”可知，她从跑步中获益良多。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“At mile 18, she said she started having “sharp back spasms (痉挛)”, but despite it all, she would not exchange the experience for anything.(在18英里处，她说她开始出现“剧烈的背部痉挛”，但尽管如此，她不会用任何东西来交换这种经历)”可推知，Barnes非常珍视这次跑纽约市马拉松赛的经历，觉得任何东西都无法换取这段经历。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“I did have a big setback around 2018, but I got myself together and persevered (坚持不懈) and got with it again(2018年前后，我确实遇到了很大的挫折，但我振作起来，坚持不懈，重新开始了)”可知，尽管遇到挫折，Barnes还是振作起来并坚持了下来。由此可知，Barnes是一个意志坚强的人。根据最后一段“She plans on running again soon, setting her sights on a half marathon in Arizona next February and running in all 50 states with her husband. She and her husband also hope to run the NYC Marathon together next year.(她计划很快再次跑步，她的目标是明年2月在亚利桑那州参加半程马拉松比赛，并与丈夫一起跑遍所有50个州。她和丈夫还希望明年能一起参加纽约马拉松比赛)”可知，她计划参加亚利桑那州的半程马拉松赛，还计划与丈夫一起跑50个州，说明Barnes是一个有远大志向的人。故选D。 C With an increasing demand and numerous challenges concerning traditional coffee agriculture, there is a pressing need for alternative ways of producing coffee. Due to the high demand for coffee, more land is required, leading to deforestation (滥伐森林) — particularly in sensitive areas of rainforest. VTT is developing coffee production through plant cells in its laboratory in Finland. “This project has been part of our overall job to look for the environmentally friendly biotechnological solutions to daily foods that are conventionally produced by agriculture. For this, we use many different hosts, such as microbes (微生物) and plant cells,” says research team leader, Dr Heiko Rischer from VTT. The work started by initiating (创立) coffee cell cultures and establishing respective cell lines. In terms of smell and taste, the trained sensory panel and analytical examination found nothing divergent when comparing the lab’s coffee to ordinary coffee. “Our coffee is so real that it is hard to tell it from the conventional one. Coffee making is an art and involves many processes. Our work provides the basis for such work,” says Rischer. The experience of drinking the very first cup was exciting. Rischer estimates expanding their production is still years away. Growing plant cells requires specific expertise when it is time to improve the process. And the coffee produced in lab conditions should first be approved as Novel Food by the European Commission before being marketed. “Therefore, that’s what we need to devote ourselves to next in the project,” says Rischer. “That said, we have proved that coffee produced in our lab can be real.” The true impact of the project will happen through companies that are willing to rethink food material production and start driving commercial applications. VTT supports large enterprises and small companies in adopting opportunities in their product development. 8. What is the mission of VTT? A. Finding alternatives to coffee. B. Achieving sustainable food production. C. Protecting the areas of rainforest. D. Developing biotechnology in agriculture. 9. What does the underlined word “divergent” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Rernarkable. B. Original. C. Unpleasant. D. Different. 10. What may the project focus on in the following stage? A. Improving the flavour. B. Increasing the production. C. Gaining official approval. D. Cooperating with companies. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Lab- grown Coffee Became a Reality B. Coffee Production Is Facing Challenges C. VVT Met with Success in Novel Food D. Agriculture Is Undergoing a Transformation 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了芬兰国家技术研究中心的研究人员已经在实验室里培育出了一种咖啡，它的气味和口感与传统咖啡无异，使咖啡的可持续性生产成为现实。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“This project has been part of our overall job to look for the environmentally friendly biotechnological solutions to daily foods that are conventionally produced by agriculture.(这个项目是我们整体工作的一部分，寻找环保的生物技术解决方案，以解决传统农业生产的日常食品)”可知，VTT的使命是实现可持续食品生产。故选B。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“Our coffee is so real that it is hard to tell it from the conventional one.(我们的咖啡是如此真实，以至于很难将其与传统咖啡区分开来)”可知，划线词所在句子表示“在嗅觉和味觉方面，经过训练的感官小组和分析检查发现，实验室的咖啡与普通咖啡相比没有任何不同”，划线词divergent的意思是“不同的”，和different意思相近。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“And the coffee produced in lab conditions should first be approved as Novel Food by the European Commission before being marketed.(在实验室条件下生产的咖啡在上市前应首先被欧盟委员会批准为新型食品)”和“Therefore, that’s what we need to devote ourselves to next in the project(因此，这是我们下一步在项目中需要投入的)”可知，在实验室条件下生产的咖啡在出售前需要首先被欧盟委员会批准为新型食品，这是研究者们在项目中接下来需要致力做的事情，所以该项目接下来可能会重点关注获得官方批准。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“VTT is developing coffee production through plant cells in its laboratory in Finland.(VTT正在芬兰的实验室里通过植物细胞开发咖啡生产)”和第三段“In terms of smell and taste, the trained sensory panel and analytical examination found nothing divergent when comparing the lab’s coffee to ordinary coffee.(在嗅觉和味觉方面，经过训练的感官小组和分析检查发现，实验室的咖啡与普通咖啡相比没有任何不同)”可知，本文主要讲的是芬兰国家技术研究中心的研究人员已经在实验室里培育出了一种咖啡，它的气味和口感与传统咖啡无异，使咖啡的可持续性生产成为现实，因此最好的题目是A选项“Lab- grown Coffee Became a Reality(实验室种植的咖啡成为现实)”。故选A。 D It is not just the environment and the economy that are threatened by a warmer climate, but also culture and traditions around the world. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have mapped what little is known about how climate change is gradually destroying local knowledge and cultural heritage. “We risk losing the memory of native people’s ways of life without this type of documentation,” says Guy Jackson at Lund University, one of the authors of a literature study. One conclusion of the study is that cultural heritage is primarily seen as something of material value, such as a historic building, and the loss is seen as a potential future problem, even though there is evidence that it is already happening. Focusing on material losses means that important traditions and knowledge systems are overlooked. “There are also many non-material losses that are valuable for both individual identity and group identity,” says Guy Jackson. The study shows a clear connection between loss of native cultural heritage and changes in the natural environment. For example, songs and working methods change when groups lose traditions linked to a physical location. One scientific article points out that identity is closely linked to the environment, “ Inuit people (因纽特人) in Canada are people of sea ice. If there is no. more sea ice, how can they be people of sea ice?” Loss of traditions and cultural heritage can make it more difficult to deal with climate change, and weaken social togetherness, as people lose touch with traditional ways of life. It also raises the question whether we can expect native people to protect and preserve rainforests and other ecosystems. The researchers hope that the literature study can read to more targeted research. They want to see a larger focus on how to handle, minimize and tackle future losses. “Science should contribute by developing practical solutions and strategies that help with adaptation to the losses that have already happened,” Guy Jackson concludes. 12. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A. Climate change causes cultural loss. B. The economy affects the environment. C. Cultural loss is a current problem. D. The native people are being forgotten. 13. What does the study show about the loss of native cultural heritage? A. It is seriously overestimated by scientists. B. It has brought great damage to Canadians. C. It has transformed global working methods. D. It is closely related to environmental changes. 14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about concerning the loss of traditions and cultural heritage? A. Its natural origins. B. Its negative results. C. Its potential reasons. D. Its effective solutions. 15. What is the main idea of the text? A. The unknown threats to the local knowledge. B. The practical solutions to some cultural issues. C. The climate change’s effect on culture and traditions. D. The various losses of important culture and traditions. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了气候变化对文化和传统的影响。有研究表明，随着气候变暖，当地人生活方式的记忆正在逐渐丧失，但这种丧失往往被忽视。文化和传统的丧失可能导致应对气候变化更困难，社会向心力被削弱。研究人员呼吁寻找可行的解决方案和策略来应对这一问题。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It is not just the environment and the economy that are threatened by a warmer climate, but also culture and traditions around the world. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have mapped what little is known about how climate change is gradually destroying local knowledge and cultural heritage.(受到气候变暖威胁的不仅是环境和经济，还有世界各地的文化和传统。瑞典隆德大学的研究人员绘制了关于气候变化如何逐渐破坏当地知识和文化遗产的地图)”以及第二段““We risk losing the memory of native people’s ways of life without this type of documentation,” says Guy Jackson at Lund University, one of the authors of a literature study. One conclusion of the study is that cultural heritage is primarily seen as something of material value, such as a historic building, and the loss is seen as a potential future problem, even though there is evidence that it is already happening.(隆德大学的盖伊·杰克逊是一项文献研究的作者之一，他说:“如果没有这种类型的文献，我们可能会失去对土著人生活方式的记忆。”该研究的一个结论是，文化遗产主要被视为具有物质价值的东西，比如历史建筑，而损失被视为未来的潜在问题，尽管有证据表明这种情况已经发生了)”可知，瑞典隆德大学的一项文献研究表明，气候变化会导致文化的丧失。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The study shows a clear connection between loss of native cultural heritage and changes in the natural environment.(这项研究表明，本土文化遗产的丧失与自然环境的变化之间存在着明确的联系)”可知，本土文化遗产的丧失与自然环境的变化有着明显的联系。故选D。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“Loss of traditions and cultural heritage can make it more difficult to deal with climate change, and weaken social togetherness, as people lose touch with traditional ways of life. It also raises the question whether we can expect native people to protect and preserve rainforests and other ecosystems.(传统和文化遗产的丧失可能使应对气候变化变得更加困难，并削弱社会团结，因为人们失去了与传统生活方式的联系。这也提出了一个问题，我们是否能指望当地人保护和保存雨林和其他生态系统)”可知，本段主要讲述文化遗产和传统丧失的后果，即负面影响。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“It is not just the environment and the economy that are threatened by a warmer climate, but also culture and traditions around the world. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have mapped what little is known about how climate change is gradually destroying local knowledge and cultural heritage.(受到气候变暖威胁的不仅是环境和经济，还有世界各地的文化和传统。瑞典隆德大学的研究人员绘制了关于气候变化如何逐渐破坏当地知识和文化遗产的地图)”结合本文主要论述了气候变化对文化和传统的影响。气候变化不仅威胁到环境和经济，还威胁到了世界各地的文化和传统，而本土文化遗产的丧失与自然环境的变化有着明显的联系。即这篇文章的主旨是气候变化对文化和传统的影响。故选C。 第二节（共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether you’re heading out for a day trip or a quick weekend getaway (短期休假), we will share some travel tips in this guide to help you make your experience more enjoyable. ·Think about how you want to travel. ___16___ Sometimes it means the most enjoyable. Too much consideration on short journeys is not worth it. If you’ve got a preference for a certain means of transport, it’s often worth traveling that way for short distances, even if it ends up taking you a little longer. ·___17___ Some cities, like NYC, are quite walkable. Others simply aren’t. In Amsterdam, the best way to get about is by bike — whether you use the city’s shared bikes or rent one from your hotel. In Southeast Asia, you’d better rent a scooter (小型摩托车). ___18___ So don’t bother to find the so-called one-size-fits-all answer. ·Try all the available options. If you’ re not sure about the best means of transport for you, experience them all. See what catching the subway is like, try cycling or riding the bus. It’s hard to predict what will be the most convenient. LA has a low- cost public transport network but car-pooling is cheaper, and scooters are the best for getting around West Hollywood. ___19___ ·Don’t rely on map apps. Map apps are useful, but they don’t take into account the possibility of packed subways, queues for taxis and the heat of a train in summer. ___20___ So don’t assume something is a 30-minute drive just because a map app says so — by the time you’ve driven halfway, you might still have another 30 minutes to go. A Don’t limit your choices. B. It takes time to find the best. C. Study the city you will travel to. D. You won’t know until you try them all. E. What works here might not work there. F. The best doesn’t necessarily mean the fastest. G. Besides, they are a bit behind the real traffic time. 【答案】16. F 17. C 18. E 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过一篇旅行指南帮助读者在旅行中做出明智的选择并得到更加愉快的体验。 【16题详解】 根据后文“Sometimes it means the most enjoyable. Too much consideration on short journeys is not worth it. If you’ve got a preference for a certain means of transport, it’s often worth traveling that way for short distances, even if it ends up taking you a little longer.(有时它意味着最愉快的。在短途旅行中考虑太多是不值得的。如果你对某种交通方式有偏好，那么短途旅行通常是值得的，即使它最终会花费你更多的时间)”可知，本空是段落的总起句，与下文提到的“Sometimes it means the most enjoyable.(有时它意味着最愉快的)”形成对比。本段建议：在选择如何旅行时要考虑个人的喜好；如果你偏好某种交通方式，那么以这种方式短途旅行是值得的，即使它花费的时间略多。F项“最好的不一定意味着最快。”符合语境故选F。 【17题详解】 本空是段落的小标题，根据本段内容“Some cities, like NYC, are quite walkable. Others simply aren’t. In Amsterdam, the best way to get about is by bike — whether you use the city’s shared bikes or rent one from your hotel. In Southeast Asia, you’d better rent a scooter (小型摩托车).(有些城市，比如纽约，非常适合步行。其他的则不是。在阿姆斯特丹，最好的出行方式就是骑自行车——不管你是使用城市的共享单车还是从酒店租一辆。在东南亚，你最好租一辆摩托车)”可知，空处应概括本段的内容并给旅行者提供建议，结合本段提及了适合不同城市的交通方式，以说明了解目的地城市的情况对于选择合适的交通方式至关重要。C项“研究你要旅行的城市。”符合语境。故选C。 【18题详解】 本空是段落中的过渡句。根据上文“Some cities, like NYC, are quite walkable. Others simply aren’t. In Amsterdam, the best way to get about is by bike — whether you use the city’s shared bikes or rent one from your hotel. In Southeast Asia, you’d better rent a scooter (小型摩托车).(有些城市，比如纽约，非常适合步行。其他的则不是。在阿姆斯特丹，最好的出行方式就是骑自行车——不管你是使用城市的共享单车还是从酒店租一辆。在东南亚，你最好租一辆摩托车)”可知，本段提到不同的交通方式适合不同的城市；没有一种交通方式适合所有城市。E项“在这里适用的不一定在那里适用。”与下文“So don’t bother to find the so-called one-size-fits-all answer.(所以，不要费心去寻找所谓的一刀切的答案)”构成因果关系，符合语境。故选E。 【19题详解】 根据上文“If you’ re not sure about the best means of transport for you, experience them all. See what catching the subway is like, try cycling or riding the bus. It’s hard to predict what will be the most convenient. LA has a low- cost public transport network but car-pooling is cheaper, and scooters are the best for getting around West Hollywood.(如果你不确定哪一种交通方式最适合你，那就都体验一下吧。看看乘地铁是什么感觉，试试骑自行车或乘公共汽车。很难预测什么是最方便的。洛杉矶有一个低成本的公共交通网络，但拼车更便宜，而在西好莱坞，滑板车是最好的交通工具)”可知，本段建议：尝试所有可用的交通方式。因为很难预测哪种方式最方便，只有全部尝试后才能知道哪种方式最适合自己，而本空是本段内容的总结，呼应段落小标题。故D项“直到你把它们试遍时才会知道。”符合语境。故选D。 【20题详解】 根据下文“So don’t assume something is a 30-minute drive just because a map app says so — by the time you’ve driven halfway, you might still have another 30 minutes to go.(所以，不要仅仅因为地图应用程序这么说，就认为某件事是30分钟的车程——当你开到一半的时候，你可能还有30分钟要走)”可知，地图应用程序中的交通信息有时会与实际情况不符。G项“此外，它们稍微滞后于实际交通时间。”与下文构成因果关系，共同说明地图应用程序的弊端，符合语境。故选G。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节, 满分30分） 第一节（共15小题: 每小题1分, 满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 After plates were filled, I announced a new dinnertime practice.

Together with four of his friends, Jack, Dan, Carson and Mali, we were excited to check out the challenging track. We’d see three waterfalls, and a volcanic crater. Stretching over eight kilometers, there were no steps on the track—just muddy paths formed on the rock face by other hikers. Climbing upstream, the journey was not for the faint-hearted (胆小的). We had to climb through thick roots and overgrown vegetation. But I knew the view from the top would be incredible. Finally, after an hour and a half, we stopped for our final rest before the peak. “I’m going to check it out!” Austin said. “I’ll join you,” I replied, eager to see the top. Racing up the last stretch, I felt excited as I walked over to the edge of the final waterfall where I turned my camera on. When I moved closer to the edge to get a better look, my foot suddenly gave way on a wet rock, sending me falling feet-first over the edge. I desperately reached out to hang on to any rocks but I couldn’t get one as I fell to the bottom 15 meters below, scraping (刮) against rocks as I went. As I fell, it felt like time stood still. “Was I going to be badly hurt?” I thought. In a moment of clarity (清醒) before I reached the bottom, I twisted my body to the side and tucked (蜷缩) myself in a ball. It was a position I’d learned in volleyball training, aimed at reducing the impact of a fall. Landing in the water with a huge splash, after around 20 seconds I managed to lift my head out, but struggled to breath and I could taste blood. “I’ve got to get myself out,” I realized, walking out to reach the edge of the pool as my visions became unclear. Holding the rocks tightly, I felt pain tore through my body and blood flowed from deep wounds on my left arm and left bottom. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Moments later, Austin arrived and raced down the track. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was airlifted to a waiting ambulance, then rushed to the hospital. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Moments later, Austin arrived and raced down the track. I struggled to communicate with him because of my difficulty with breathing. Austin refused to leave my side and desperately called out for help. When two hikers rushed to my aid, relief flooded through me. Phoning a rescue team, they held my hands tightly and told me help was on its way. Soon after, our friends found us and did their best to keep me calm. When the helicopter arrived 45 minutes later, the crew carried me onto a stretcher to safety. I was airlifted to a waiting ambulance, then rushed to the hospital. There, the medical staff gave me a thorough examination and I had surgery four days later. “You’re lucky you landed the way you did,” one surgeon said after the surgery, adding if I hadn’t reacted that way, my injuries could have been a lot worse. Thankfully, after two weeks in hospital, I had recovered, and I was discharged. Although my accident was painful, it taught me that what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. After a brush with death, I’m determined to live every day to the fullest. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和四个朋友去徒步，结果作者不慎掉下了悬崖，紧急时刻作者想到了排球训练中学到的一个姿势， 蜷缩自己成一个球的形状，目的是减少摔倒的影响，后来多亏了朋友的帮助，作者被及时送往医院，最终得以康复。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“过了一会儿，奥斯丁到了，沿着跑道飞奔而下”可知，第一段可描写朋友帮助作者的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“我被空运到一辆等候的救护车上，然后被紧急送往医院”可知，第二段可描写作者在医院恢复以及感悟。 2.续写线索：朋友赶来——呼救——救援到达——送往医院——康复——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 决定：be determined to /decide to 死里逃生：a brush with death / have a narrow escape 拒绝：refuse/decline 情绪类 拼命：desperately/ tooth and nail 冷静：keep calm/calm down 【点睛】[高分句型1] When the helicopter arrived 45 minutes later, the crew carried me onto a stretcher to safety.
